This will read almost any video format for input:
transcode -y divx5 -w <video_bitrate> -b <audio_bitrate> -i <input> \
-o <output.avi>
It's a good idea to tweak the options for the best video, but the above
will work as a start.
I used to use mencoder but now find transcode tends to be much
easier at converting.

I think transcode will do it also, but not sure. Google for 'linux dvd
ripping'.
